Project Description:
The Enterprise Data & Analytics team delivers a portfolio of solutions bringing together data assets, governance and technologies to support Clientâs mission to make it easy to do business.

You will work closely with business and technology teams to translate business needs into clear, scalable data design, ensuring that strategic initiatives such as Growth Intelligence are built on strong, reusable and aligned data foundations.

Ability to translate business needs into clear data design, with a focus on enabling decision-making and delivering measurable business outcomes
Experience working with data governance, master data management and data quality concepts, and understanding how these are enabled through architecture
Strong stakeholder engagement and influencing skills, with the ability to work across business and technology teams and drive alignment in a matrix environment
Ability to balance strategic thinking with pragmatic delivery, ensuring solutions are both scalable and achievable
Experience of supporting or delivering data-led transformation initiatives is advantageous
